I Wait in the Night: The Death Row Journal of Jacques Fesch

I Wait in the Night presents the prison journal of Fesch, translated by and with commentary from Fr. Rupert Allen, Cong. Orat. In a frank and sometimes brutally honest way, these pages tell the story of the hope that has come to a young man in a five-by-two-meter cell while he waits to be executed for a murder he committed in the course of a robbery.

Justice: Judge Rightly, Give Freely

Upon hearing justice, you might imagine a cold legal standard or perhaps a contentious issue in contemporary debates on civil liberties. But, truth be told, justice is less about what others owe us and more about becoming a genuinely free person. Authentic justice is a life giving cardinal virtue that shapes all our relationships — with God and with others — one that empowers us to become the kind of people who can freely give what is right.

In this rich and practical exploration, Fr. Gregory Pine, O.P., shows how justice — rightly understood — anchors our relationships, orders our interactions, and empowers us to live with purpose.

Fr. Gregory Pine, OP
